Shownotes Transcript

Joey talks about how the ROCK STEADY skills and way of life translate into parenting for neurodivergent and neurocomplex households. She talks about the importance of bringing the body along as we parent our kids. How do we keep them in their body, aware of their own neural differences and advocating for their own needs from a young age?

Joey talks about emotional expression, moving big energy, validating fears and supporting vivid imagination as well as navigating daily rituals and routine by attuning to each family member's body. Can we let the nervous systems do the talking and enter non-verbal spaces to support each other? Sometimes, exact-knowing and words are not what we need.

This conversation was requested by ROCK STEADY members wondering how to best support their neurodivergent family members.
